Learn Your RV

First and foremost, you are going to want to learn about your RV. Take an afternoon and spend some time figuring out how the awning works all of the slides, in addition to learning about your hook-up for the campground and how your hitch works.

Plan Activities for the Kids

Once you have a good feel for your RV, take some time to plan some activities for your family to enjoy at the campground. This can be anything from a game of volleyball to a round of cards after dinner. A great way to get your whole family excited about the trip is to have an itinerary of things for them to look forward to.

Call the Campground Ahead of Time

Another tip that not oh first time Rv was thinking of is to call your campground ahead of time. We recommend booking all of your campsites before you arrive so that you don’t get hit with having to find a different location last minute. Additionally, this will give you an opportunity to ask questions, like what campsites are the most level or easy to pull into and which ones have the best reviews or are closest to the bathhouse.

Enjoy Making Memories

Lastly, take time to relax and enjoy the adventure. Not everything is going to go according to plan on your first vacation with your new RV, but that’s OK. Make sure you give yourself grace and take time to enjoy the little moments.
